The foundation has extended the nomination deadline for the highly anticipated 40th Annual Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and the Legacy of Leaders Awards.

Important New Deadline

Due to a remarkable surge of interest and the significance surrounding this milestone event, the new nomination deadline is now set for April 15, 2025. This ceremony, which will take place during Hall of Fame Week from September 21 to 28, 2025, in vibrant Atlanta, Georgia, aims to honor four decades of committed leadership and celebrated contributions within the Black community.

The Hall of Fame Inductions focus on recognizing individuals who have made exceptional contributions culturally, educationally, or economically. This prestigious accolade aims to highlight individuals who have profoundly impacted their fields and communities, paving the way for future leaders.

Hall of Fame Inductions

The Hall of Fame Inductions specifically honor those affiliated with HBCUs and PBIs who have established themselves as leaders in various sectors. Being inducted into this prestigious hall signifies a lifelong commitment to excellence and contributions that uplift the Black community.
